Their error is that they divided 12 by 30, instead of 30 by 12 in order to get the price per pair
the correct unit price is $2.50 per pair
2.5 * 12 = 30
Answer:
x = 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Perimeter = 2 * width + 2 * length
= 2*11 + 2(x + 5) = 50
2x + 10 + 22 = 50
2x = 50 - 10 - 22
2x = 18
x = 9
Answer:
P - Q = - 11b² + 8b - 4
Step-by-step explanation:
P - Q
= - 4b² + 6b - 9 - (7b² - 2b - 5) ← distribute parenthesis by - 1
= - 4b² + 6b - 9 - 7b² + 2b + 5 ← collect like terms
= - 11b² + 8b - 4
So we are trying to get the “y” alone, so to undo the division by -8, we will multiply both sides by -8, then simplify.
(-8) y/(-8) = (-8) 1/16
y = -8/16
and simplified:
y = -1/2
So start with the top one and end w the bottom
